My first concern would be the choice of solder paste you have. There are better chemistries out there that far exceed the capabilities of the 609 2. Yes, the part will partially float on the solder (assuming plastic qfp). Cross sectioning would sho

Here's my 10 cents Studies done in the 1980's concluded that pure tin was prone to whisker generation. A tin content lower then 70% became exempt from this phenomenon. I have never seen or done any studies on the impact lead had in reducing the pote

Our first pass yield across all our products is above 95% but we include anything that does not meet IPC standards. Probably 75% of our failures are not electrical. AOI is a great tool to get a consistent measure of your process. I dont know how anyo

Hello INGE FI, I know what you are going through. A few years back, I was faced with having to purchase AOI equipment for my business. My selection team and I looked at several different AOI manufacturers. We found that only two AOI vendors were sui

I've always used multiple verification, and it's worked rather well. But, it depends on the people that are doing the verification, and their commitment to accuracy. It also requires a little bit of extra time. Given your system, are you still get

If there is a way to ensure that the product is reliable, it is to ensure the predictability of its PCB, which is an important part of the product. In fact, PCB is the core component in almost all electronic products (from phones to computer systems)

I will review some of the advantages/disadvantages of AOI vs. X-Ray one by one according to the main differences that you may find between them. * AOI uses optics that can "see" only visible elements. X-Ray can "see" hidden elements. There is a ve

49 hits on nitrogen, you probably used the one with the entry window => 13 or whatever hits on nitrogen. Here is my take on what you missed by using the other seach: Date: May 26, 2001 04:57 AM Author: Brian Sloth Bentzen Subject: Nitrogen Reflow

| Hello Ya'll, | I've got what may be a silly question, but why does it seem so important to everybody that you have x-ray capability if you're thinking about doing BGA? | I know what most people will tell me; "Steve, that's a pretty silly qu
